My phone was unlocked, running a version of Insert Coin and with CWM recovery. It suddenly froze while using the Chrome browser, and after what seemed like quite a long time the phone restarted as I thought it would, but it was in a boot loop for some reason. I managed to get it into the bootloader, everything appearing normal still displaying it as unlocked, and I tried getting in to CWM but it froze on the HTC screen. I knew my phone was low on battery, so i tried getting it back to bootloader to turn it off. The bootloader then showed my phone as being Locked, with a warning saying the phone was too low on battery to flash anything. At this point i quickly turned it off to try save battery as it didn't seem to be charging. I had it plugged in, but the red LED wasn't lighting up. I tried turning it on but then it died while loading, so I presume the battery went.
So now it's plugged in, no red light showing so I presume its not charging, my PC won't detect it and it won't turn on or show any signs of life. I think if I can get the battery to charge at all I can fix it. I know it looks like it's gone for good, but I wanted to see if anyone could help. Any help is appreciated.
Plug into Wall charger and leave it For at least 3 hours, but make sure it is Powered off. The pc does provide enough power in this situation

left it on charging while i slept. Still doesn't turn on or show any signs of life, the phone is cold so I don't think it's charging at all. Is there anything else to try or will I see if HTC will fix it for free even though I think the warranty is void?

I know for sure I unlocked it, but for some reason when my bootloader was saying I had low battery it said it was LOCKED again, but 2 minutes earlier it said it was UNLOCKED. Is it even possible to relock the bootloader without it showing RELOCKED without S-OFF?

Warranty isn't void if its relocked ..it depends if the damage is due to yourself or its from the phone itself...just sent to them and say or wrote on a paper what's wrong and yes...so that it isn't due to yourself

My phone won't actually turn on so I can't use that. The phone doesn't respond to anything, I don't understand how it could just die.
It isn't even showing the red dot while charging ? ...maybe just battery died......

I Really didnt even do anything. flashed cm7.0.2 few days ago
with pershoot kernel
been running fine. never overclocked etc.
just few hours ago my phone kept freezing and when i turn it back on it would show black screen, pulled battery rebooted and froze in bootscreen.
wiped dalvik cache wiped cache rebooted been working fine then froze again
same thing happened
repeated the process then forze again so i thought i would wiped the whole thing so did factory reset and it showed something like E:cant mount/recovery/cache or w/e
(i used gmethod to rooted the device.)
....i flashed miui on top of it then flashed kernel and those error popped up again
....i was scraed rebooted...htc logo
for like 10 min...pulled out the battery....now my phone wont turn on... any ideas?
i know the phone is done for real. when i plug into charger nothing comes up
when i turn it on nothing comes up
when i turn it on to hboot nothing comes up
does anyone know where i can get a new motherboard?
i voided the warranty by doing the spring mod
or new screws with void stickers.
It's possible the battery is having problems, i doubt it though, it seems as though youve hard bricked your phone.
does anyone know where i can get the motherboard or better
OEM htc g2 screws with void stickers?

By the looks of things, any number of factors could be contributing to your Desires errors. However, it does seem like you've messed up the partitioning on the Desire Z internal memory and its giving you errors for it.
Try these steps.
1. Take the battery out and plug in your charger.
If the light doesnt come up try plugging your USB cable into your PC to charge.
If the light still doesn't come up your Desire Z is gone.
However, if the light does eventually come on, go to 2.
2. If any light comes up, then try turning it on.
If the screen turns on and you see ANYTHING besides black thats GOOD. go to 3
If the screen doesn't turn on there may be a motherboard issue.
3. Now if you can get it to turn on and not show black you should try this:
3a. Plug it into your PC then from there hold VOL DOWN and then navigate your way to Fastboot. It should say FASTBOOT USB or something like that.
3b. Flash a stable ROM onto your phone via your PC by going into recovery, mounting as storage then copying a ROM over. Then just flash the ROM onto your Desire Z and it should be fine.
If all this fails you should send it to a repair shop. There's no way you would get warranty to fix it at this point.
so ok i managed to get mini usb cable
When i conntected my phone to charger last night the orange battery light came on.
but nothing else.
when i clicked voulme down button then connected it to my computer it vibrated 5 times then green light came on.
And on my computer it showed up as Qualcom CDMA technologies MSM.
im searching everywhere to see if i can fix it. at this point any help would be appreciated.
I did notice that even though the phone wasnt turning on the phone was getting hot? (it wasnt connected to the charger obviously.)
when i did battery pull and leave it out it cools down. when i put it back in and turn it back on it gets hot after a while even though the screen and everything does not turn on.
Do this:
Pop out the battery and leave it for maybe 1 minute.
Then put the battery back in and see if the phone gets hot. If the phone does get hot skip passed 3 and 4.
Now assuming the phone doesn't get hot, plug it into your charger for about 5 minutes before turning the phone on. Try and get into Fastboot/Bootloader.
Once in your bootloader, just navigate your way to recovery and flash a new rom.
If the phone/battery gets hot it means its turned itself on as soon as the battery has gone and the phone isn't displaying anything. You should try just plugging the phone into the charger and turning it on. See if you get anything up on the screen. If you do then just jump into recovery and flash a rom.
Otherwise, if the screen always stays black regardless of what you do, send it in for repairs.

yea it stays black no matter what i do,, but it does get hot though.
Farout.. you should really send it to a repair shop then. The reason why is because you can't do anything to the device without the screen on. You can try and hope for it to boot into HBOOT but you would have better luck sending it off on Warranty or to a phone repairs place.

Haha thats brilliant. Don't brick this one lol.
any way to charge a phone once completely dead
as the title states, once in the bootloop issue if your battery ends up at 0% and can't be charged is there a way out of this. Here is my issue. I can't get into recovery. Hboot or fastboot are the only options available. Sometimes it boots into the ROM but instantly dies once restarting. No clue as to the trigger as I've tried pretty much all the combinations of factory reset, reboot-bootloader, erase cache etc etc etc trying to get this into a non on mode so it can charge.
In addition to this of course anytime I plug the phone in it automatically turns on in either bootloader or fastboot which gives it no opportunity to charge at all otherwise I would simply run the RUU which won't let me until it hits 30%. I've more or less come to the conclusion I have to send it in because its not quite the same situation that others have experienced. But was hoping to get an answer/fix so I don't have to send it in to HTC to get repaired since the RMA guys just told me it'll be 10 business days before they even get in parts to the texas facility to get it sent there for repairs.
also of note, I had managed to relock the bootloader but can't get enough juice to run the RUU
What about borrowing a battery or getting one and charging it. That would be better than sending it in.

With the current recovery. The phone can't charge while off. You can't let it die
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
yeah so far I've tried literally everything out there. I almost need a way to figure out how to wipe the rom so it can't restart and sit on the loading screen so it can charge, but so far no luck with anything in the forum. I've literally tried it all.
Could be worse, my replacement comes today (but cost the same sadly, looks like the gf will get a new one when I can send it out to htc for repairs and get it back)
So, when you plug the charger in, the phone starts up into hboot or something? And can you not press and hold power for 10 secs to force it to power off while still plugged in? My phone was charging while it was completely off. That's after I discharged it completely, it shut itself off.
any time I plug it in it automatically turns back on. If I hold down the power button for 10 seconds it simply reboots.

By either plugging in every time it stops charging or rebooting it like that you should be able to gradually charge it over 30%, that's what I heard. So it's not as easy as plug in and wait, but rather plug in, unplug, plug back in.
I have this same issue. Arent their any recoveries that charge while in recovery mode??
Yes.. The stock recovery. You need to flash that.
again, can't flash diddly because of low battery. So flashing stock recovery does nothing as it would end in an error.
Very possible solution! Worked for me!
It seems my reply via the XDA-App did not come through.. As I wanted to reply.
My H0X was also dead. Wouldn't charge nor boot, with wall charger or by pc.. but I thought.. well let's give it a chance by using my iPhone 4 charger (with HTC cable of course)
Guess what: It worked!
SO TO ALL WHO IS HAVING THIS 'WILL NOT CHARGE' PROBLEM:
Try an other charger, even try your wireless mouse, or other phone chargers.. Anything!

you don't think something silly like this idea has been done? When the phone is plugged into any outside source of charge, it turns on in bootloader. This does not charge it...
Get into fastboot and try charge ..same happened to me when I tried to install Mike's Rom. So what I ended up doing was after trying a millions things to get a little charge so I could flash stock recovery and relock bootloader. I turn phone off. Plug charge for 2 seconds unplug. Plug again unplug. Big pain in the ass. Don't let charger to long cause it boots phone againg. So usually u see led turn on then few seconds later it goes off that's when u have to unplug charger. Do that again a few times. Enough to get a little charge again to flash stock recover. Once u flash stock recover phone charges normally. You also need the correct RUU for ur phone. That's after flashing stock recovery then relock bootloader then flash ruu. Then u can try again a custom Rom or whatever u were doing

I faced your situation once
get into the bootloader and flash back the official recovery
Hello! let's just cut to the chase. I need help..
Couple of days ago I got tired of waiting for the new ota for my phone so I decided to root.. unlocking bootloader went well, installed newest cwm, made a backup of my rom and chose renovate 3.0 as my first rom to try... everything works normal and I update the faux kernel on the rom to version 5b01.. all works normally at this point.. I play games, listen to music, surf the web.. yesterday I then updated the kernel to 5b03.. I went playing dark knigt rises (btw a very good game) and the phone heats up pretty much (which I think is normal as the game is quite heavy and I use wilkyys game booster app). I play about 15minutes and I get the message that the battery is running low, I plug the charger in and continue.. five minutes go and the phone freezes and the screen goes black.. the phone is connected to the charger and the charging light blinks red.. the phone won't start, even when pressing the power key for 10seconds. I can get to the bootloader and recovery _when_ the phone is connected to the charger thou.. if I unplug the charger the phone won't do anything. I search the problem on xda and find some threads about similar problems.. eventually after changing from the wallcharger to the usb charger on my pc (did this many times..) the red light goes solid and I press power and the phone boots normally.. weehee I made it!! or so I thought..
Next day: I woke up and the phone was in charger all night. Battery reads 100%. I load "system tuner" and experiment with undervolting my phone (only -50mv) and run some benchmarks and everything seems working.. I start to download an app from the play store.. the phone freezes and again the same flashing red light is to be seen, I thought it could be because of the undervolt but I'm not sure anymore.. and now I haven't got the phone in working condition.. I have now got the phone in recovery for about three hours and there should be enough juice for it to start but it wont..
I also restored my backup but that didin't help.. with the getvar battery-voltage command it reads about 2500mv which should be enough to atleast power it on?

2500mv is far too low for lithium ion batteries. There are protection mechanisms in most lithium ion batteries that will trigger at 2.7volts or lower putting the battery and its protection circuitry into deep sleep.
From the battery university: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries/
Li-ion should never be discharged too low, and there are several safeguards to prevent this from happening. The equipment cuts off when the battery discharges to about 3.0V/cell, stopping the current flow. If the discharge continues to about 2.70V/cell or lower, the battery’s protection circuit puts the battery into a sleep mode. This renders the pack unserviceable and a recharge with most chargers is not possible. To prevent a battery from falling asleep, apply a partial charge before a long storage period.
If this is the case you may not be able to recover easily. We can only assume something went wrong with the phones firmware that caused it to deeply discharge and now protection measures have kicked in.
Regards
Phil
hmm.. thanks for the answer.. last night I got the charging light to stay solid when I plugged the phone in and I was so happy.. but I was so stupid and tried immediatly to turn it on.. it even started and got to the quietly brilliant screen, but died pretty soon and the red light started blinking again.. then I realised I should have kept it charging for a while before trying to turn it on... god damn it..

When lithium batteries are deep discharge (below 2.7volt) changes take place which can cause short circuits in the battery, recharging then becomes dangerous, hence the battery goes into a form of safety mode, it's like a fuse blowing. It may never take a charge again, or if it does, the battery life will be less than before.
Hope it recovers okay however if it really did hit 2.5volt it could be permanently damaged now.
Regards
Phil
mine was doing that for a while. Keep it plugged in, if the wall charger doesnt work hook it up to a computer. it will turn on again...
simple keep the phone on charge for few hours and dont touch it.
Ok back to the problem.. the phone was in charger yesterday for about 12hours.. and still won't show any signs of recovery.. blinking red light continues... I might just have to accept that I have to send it in to repair... sigh.. and I think I have to pay for it..
As I said in my first post I have restored a nandroid backup of which I made as soon as I installed cwm.. so I should be at stock firmware? allthou I can't confirm it as I can't get the phone to boot but cwm said restore was succesful.. next step is to install original recovery and relock the phone, am I correct? so next question is.. is there anyway to do this as everytime I try to flash something with flasboot I end up with "failed: low battery"...?

I've experienced this kind of problem when I drain the battery flat; naturally, I crapped myself like everyone else since there's no easy way to remove the battery like you would for any other phone.
All I did (and still do) when this happens is hold the power button until the main buttons flash white a few times, let go and it should reboot the phone..
two minutes pressing power button, nothing happens

Ok... update (don't know if anyones interested..) Today I got at txt message from my carrier that the phone is now ready.. and what do you know.. it was covered by warranty. They changed the motherboard and the screen module (I had one dead pixel) needless to say Im pretty happy now.

Don't you just love it when that happens.
I had a rooted phone and my warranty was probably void. A week ago I dropped the phone screen first onto a concrete floor and I expected the worst. Picked it up and turned it on and to my surprise, the screen hadn't cracked. Used it for 5 minutes and it worked as it normally would. When I got back home and wanted to make a call, the screen wouldn't turn on. The lights for the buttons would light up but the screen would remain blank. Calls and texts would come through so the phone worked, just without the screen. After about 10 minutes of tinkering, the screen turned on and I heaved a sigh of relief thinking all was normal again. But when I locked it and tried unlocking it, the screen refused to turn on again. At this point I assumed there would be a loose connection between the MB and screen.
I took the phone to a few repair shops around here to find out how much they would charge and I got quotes around $200. So I decided to try taking it to the vodafone store to see how much it would cost to get HTC to repair the phone. The guy over the counter inspects the phone and finds no physical damage to the screen and says that they'd be glad to replace the phone right then and there at the price of me losing all my data as that would be unrecoverable. I told him I'd be glad to have a replacement on the spot. So in the end, I guess I got a good deal.
Lucky you !

I had the same problem last night:
phone charging with the HTC wallcharger, alarm set.
the device did not ring: it died during the night.
At first, impossible to boot (rom or hboot) or to charge it. I plugged it on my PC and the red light started to flash. One hour later, it was still flashing, so I tried to turn it ON
It turned ON but repported 2% battery only. (ok, that's why it was refusing to boot)
4 hours later, ON and plugged to the HTC wallcharger (that I verified of course), it was still 2%
After three reboots, plug/unplug several times, suddenly battery displayed 44% instead of 2%
Battery monitor repports that indeed, the device charged for the 1st part of the night, then suddenly and very quickly discharged to 0 while plugged, with no particular app to drain the battery.
During the 4 hours it was plugged and ON, it remained 2%, then a sudden 44% after a reboot.....
What the hell is that???? I've now cleaned cache and battery stats in recovery and I'm letting it charging to see if it goes above these 44%
Weird, I really thought my battery had just died....
EDIT: 2 minutes later, it now repports 46%, so seems to charge correctly. But I need to know what happened, I usually relay on my phone alarm to wake up, and if it happens again, it could be a real problem. Maybe I should flash an other recovery, even if I never had a single problem with it?

I have drained battery, been charging all night with a flashing red LED. No response. Now when I plug it in it still flashes red. When I hold the power button (also power+volume down) the main buttons start flashing white, but no response from the phone whatsoever.
When I let go the power button during the flashing, the lights either go out or stay on..
Any ideas? Thank you!
I have an HTC One X and I was using the phone today as the battery was reaching 1%, the phone began to get extremely hot, and just before the phone powered itself off, the screen flashed white and then died. Upon plugging the phone into the wall charger, a red light flashed once and then turned off, The phone does not power on at all and i cannot access the bootloader options. The phone is unrooted and the bootloader is locked. I have tried plugging the phone into a computer and it does not pick it up at all. What so you recommend I try? I am also afraid to take the phone into my service provider as I have some very important data which I wish to retrieve.
Thanks in advance for any help, all help is appreciated
Leave it on the wallcharger over night. Not coming back to life after that it's warranty repair. Nothing else you can do really......

If your phone is stock and never been unlocked via HTCdev then all i can recommend is sending it back to HTC before you warranty runs out. Sounds like a hardware fault to me. Let your phone cool down then boot it back up and try copy your data to your computer.

So my zenfone 2 is rooted and today it ran out of battery. I put it on charger, there is no LED indicator lighting but ok, i thought it´s charging, so in few minutes i tried to power my device on, but i got only that low battery screen and it turn off after few seconds. I can get to this low battery screen even without charger, but it´s same. When i press power button in this low battery screen i get that bolt there, like it´s charging for a second but then it turn off. I also can´t get to recovery mode, even when i try it on that screen, it shows white battery with question mark. When i try it from turned off mobile, nothing happens. Please help me. Sorry for my bad english. Im sure that charger is OK because it works with other stuff and when i plug the mobile into pc, it´s just same, nothing. I have TWRP recovery btw.
Seems that you are having my same problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/phone-wont-charge-tries-to-t3426130), but you can see the charging screen. Does your phone get hot while charging? Mine doesn't (so it is not charging) I bought the usb chargning module, hoping that it will arrive soon if that is the problem.
Regards.

It stopped working completely so i think its problem with charging port or with battery. It wasnt charging so i got it to shop where i have warranty, they will send it to asus but i hope they will take it, because it s rooted, but i dont have any custom rom or something and i read somewhere that in EU, they must take rooted phone, when there is not any custom rom n ****

Yeah... I'm waiting for the charging port to arrive. Please post the results of the warranty, maybe we have the same problem.
Good Luck
